I thought I said it already in easy enough steps but here it is in point form ... assuming you want to create a page called 'MyLibrary' and have that sorted into the User Contributions category ... * Go to the main page. * In the browser's address field you should see "http://euwiki.ayo.biz/Main_Page" * Replace this with "http://euwiki.ayo.biz/MyLibrary" * Click on the 'edit' tab to begin editing the newly created page. * Place anything you like in the page. * Place the line ... [[Category:User contributions]] anywhere at all in the page. It doesn't have to be at the bottom. * Click on the "Show Preview" button to see what your page will look like. * Repeat editing and showing preview until happy with it. * Click the "Save Page" button. That will stored you page into the wiki and automatically add an entry into the User contributions category. -- Derek Parnell Melbourne, Australia Skype name: derek.j.parnell
